It is important that club names do not pose a conflict to FISAF Australia or any of its existing members (including clubs, schools, and individual athletes) for the benefit of its code. Conflicts can lead to confusion and go against the best interests of other members and stakeholders involved in our sport. In line with this, club names will be subject to approval by FISAF Australia to enable them to successfully register and participate in competitions. Clubs will not be permitted to register if their club name contains any of the below:
- State/Territory
- Capital City
- Region other than a town/city name (such as Southeast Queensland, or Southern Australia).
- This includes clubs seeking to register as an abbreviated version of their full name that contains (by way of inference or directly) a Capital City/State/Country name
- Clubs who have their unique club name followed by the State they are located in are exempt from this rule.
FISAF Australia reserves the right to reject registrations based on this clause.
